I didn’t think it possible. Benza, a clueless embarrassment, who has coughed, snorted and whistled through rotting teeth about his mediocre wannabe past of 30+ years ago, setting surreal self obsessed all time lows, has somehow sank even further. “Hair Parts” is a new low, this circle jerk of the bottom of the bowl will make you miss the gypsy Charo mangle the English language.

Great show if you enjoy listening to someone spiral out of control. Benza has become so toxic that his gypsy fortune teller friend has left the show and fled back to Ukraine.

Please! Stop the snorting every 10 seconds! It’s disgusting!
